The PayPal SDK Cordova/Phonegap Plugin adds support for the PayPal SDK on iOS and Android platforms. It uses the native PayPal Mobile SDK libraries, which you must also download. Cordova plugin management will set up all the required capabilities/frameworks for the project. The only bit left for you to do is to add necessary files, as described below.
- Download the PayPal iOS SDK.
- Download the [PayPal Android SDK] (https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-Android-SDK).
- Follow the official Cordova documentation to install command line tools and create a project.
- Run
cordova plugin add https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-Cordova-Plugin
. - Run
cordova platform add ios
or/andcordova platform add android
. - For iOS, open the Xcode project in the
platforms/ios
folder and add thePayPalMobile
folder from step 1. - For Android, copy the
libs
folder from step 2 to thelibs
folder inplatforms/android
. - Run
cordova build
to build the projects for all of the platforms.
The PayPal SDK Cordova/Phonegap Plugin adds 2 JavaScript files to your project.
cdv-plugin-paypal-mobile-sdk.js
: a wrapper around the native SDK. ThePayPalMobile
object is immediately available to use in your.js
files.paypal-mobile-js-helper.js
: a helper file which defines thePayPalPayment
,PayPalPaymentDetails
andPayPalConfiguration
classes for use withPayPalMobile
